CEA (Central amygdalar nucleus) functionally connects to CL:0000679

Species: Mouse
Result: present
Method: optogenetic circuit mapping
Sign: inhibitory
Evidence: Three of the light-responsive BNST neurons were VGlut2-positive, showing that glutamatergic BNST cells also receive inhibitory input from CeA D2R neurons.

Named in the paper: “CeA-D2R neurons” and “VGlut2-expressing (glutamatergic) BNST neurons”
Made by: an AI model reading the paper (claude-opus-5, extract@0.3.0), 2026-10-09
Checked by: a second AI model (claude-opus-5) agrees, 2026-10-09
“The three remaining IPSC-positive BNST cells were VGlut2-expressing, as stated in Results.”
